Abstract

A sugar called tagatose is one of the next things that will be appearing on the horizon for products labelled under the pseudo-hygienic appellations of “light”, “lite”, “low calorie”, “sugar free”, “sugarless”, “low fat”, “low sodium”, etc. The only true hygienic starting point, in this day and age of universal deceit, if we want good foods that are optimum for our health, is: “Start with fruit, grains, nuts, and vegetables simply and wholesomely prepared FROM SCRATCH at home”. This review contains a brief study on chemistry of tagatose, how it is produced, applications, limitations and legislations associated with tagatose.

 

Keywords: Tagatose, pseudohygiene, sugar free, sugarless
